- Summary
-
"They began as manufacturers of electronic mood organs and player pianos. Then they improved the line--they started building exact simulacra of famous men. They thought that people would pay a good price to have anyone they wanted made to order--to talk with, befriend, and eventually utilize f or any purpose they wanted. But they ran into trouble. For one thing an exactly programmed reconstruction of a famous man is going to be obstinate and as character-complex as the real man was--and nobody's puppet. For another, they got involved with a project for settling the moon with their creations. And finally they got tangled up with their own personal identities"--Page 4 of cover.
